A significant structural renovation of our downstairs — removing internal walls to create a large open-plan living space, a new downstairs WC, new flooring throughout, a brand-new kitchen and patio doors. The quality of workmanship has been outstanding and the project was completed within the agreed timescales. Any minor snags were dealt with promptly, often almost immediately.

We started 2025 with a 2-storey chimney being taken out. The lads did such a good job we gave them the rest of our renovation — two small extensions, a new downstairs toilet and kitchen, upstairs bathroom, a bedroom move and renovation, finishing with a full back garden renovation. We've had many comments on how good the work looks, especially the brickwork.

We've recently had a knock-through between the lounge and dining room along with other internal and brick work. We're extremely pleased with the quality — everything finished to a high standard, the team were professional, tidy and clearly took pride in what they were doing. Communication with Craig was great throughout and they stuck to the agreed timeline.

After getting a few quotes for our kitchen, we chose Cheshire Design & Build NW and I'm glad we did. They turned up when they said they would, kept us updated, and got on with the job without any fuss. The finished kitchen looks fantastic. Reliable, respectful, and they clearly take pride in their work.

Excellent. Craig replied immediately and viewed the job. A detailed price and timeline was sent. Once the job was underway problems occurred — not Craig's fault — new plans were made and the job was done. Communication was 100%, that's important for me, and a cleaner is sent in at the end of the work. A great job done. Would definitely recommend.

Brilliant company, amazing team. Came to fit a lintel for me and brick up the outside of the house. The job was finished quickly and efficiently — very friendly and knowledgeable. Thank you so much, highly recommend.

Refurbishing a building that still has to work

A refurbishment of a live commercial building is a programme-management problem as much as a construction one. The business still has to trade, staff still have to work, customers still have to come through the door — and the work still has to be done properly, to standard, on time.

We refurbish offices, retail units, hospitality venues and industrial premises across Cheshire, Warrington and the North West — phased, contained and sequenced so the building keeps operating while it's being brought up to date.

What we refurbish

  • Offices — partitioning, ceilings, MEP upgrades, breakout spaces and finishes refresh.
  • Retail — re-brand and refit of live-trading stores, shopfronts, lighting and flooring.
  • Hospitality — venue refits, kitchens, bars and front-of-house.
  • Industrial & trade units — internal alterations, mezzanines, office pods and services.
  • Building fabric & compliance — fire-rated construction, accessibility upgrades and services renewal.
  • Phased delivery — floor by floor, zone by zone, out of hours where needed.

Part of our commercial fit-out service — see also office, retail and light-industrial fit-out.

Commercial Refurbishment FAQs

Can we stay open during the refurbishment?

In most cases, yes — that's the normal way these projects run. We phase the works floor by floor or zone by zone, contain the areas, agree noise windows and work out of hours where the business genuinely can't stop.

How do you handle a building that's still occupied?

With a programme built around the occupier, not the contractor. Dust and noise containment, safe routes and fire escape maintained throughout, clear progress reporting, and a single point of contact so you always know what's happening and when.

How much does a commercial refurbishment cost?

Every refurbishment is individually quoted — it depends on the building, the specification and how much has to happen out of hours. After a free site visit we provide a fully itemised written quotation with no hidden costs.

Where do you work?

Across Cheshire, Warrington and the North West — including Wilmslow, Knutsford, Altrincham, Stockport and Manchester.
